Trash fines on Monday...

It seems that, while the trash collectors got Monday off, the enforcement staff didn't.

How many people got ticketed for having their trash out a day early? {sigh}

I have no problem with ticketing for this normally, but ticketing on a three day weekend when people are liable to break the ordinance inadvertently isn't reasonable.

Is there any reason to ticket for this at all, as long as people are using the lidded city-issued garbage carts?

It can make the sidewalks narrower/harder to navigate. I could see how a no-ticketing policy could lead to people keeping their cans at the curb at all times, which could be a larger inconvenience for pedestrians.
